Do you already have Debian | installed on the machine? If so, why do you want to boot off the CDROM? | | There are 4 reasons that I know of why you might not be able to boot off a CD: | | 1) Your bios doesn't support it (Have you checked your BIOS?) I did; choices are : A, HD, CDROM. So I selected CDROM. | 2) Your bios isn't set up to boot off the CD (again, check BIOS) See above. | 3) faulty CD Sorry, NO. Works on another machine. | 4) faulty CDROM drive No, worked on another machine and I can read cd's. On the motherboard I have 2 connectors, 1 for ide1 and 1 for ide2. My CDROM is connected to the connector of ide2. Can this be my mistake ? Thanks mess-mate | | | -- | To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] | with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
